I was looking at NetworkManager.conf(5).

I was indeed creating text files to drop in /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d
as documented in that man page. Maybe "undocumented" is a bit unfair,
there are some hints about the numbers, but IMHO the section "FILE
FORMAT" could be improved. It clear to me when I re-read it that the
types of values are defined in nm-settings(5); the fact that the rest of
the NetworkManager.conf man page uses the symbolic values, sometimes but
not always accompanied by integer equivalents, does not help.
